[Acer Iconia A500] HD87:
I found this 80 GB Hard Drive http://www.amazon.com/80GB-Blue-Ext...6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1312232559&sr=1-6 for about $32 with s/h. Could I run a 500GB or 1TB USB HD on the iconia? please post up links and make recommendations :)
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
If you're going to buy an external HDD then DON'T go for something that small :S I mean, what's the point? Yes, you can slap even a 1TB one on it. Just buy a 2.5" or 1.8" one so you won't even need a power-cord on it, the tab doesn't output enough power over USB to power a 3.5" one.

If you've got the money a solid-state drive would likely be the best choice considering that they draw very little power meaning that the Tab's battery would last slightly longer.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
best and cheap

Sorry but you often never get what you pay for if you go cheap it will be far from the best.and by all means Solid state is best. Remember not all drives are alike. Cheap is often very slow. And faster drives can be more expensive and use more power.

Balance. I think is best.

But just my openion
[Acer Iconia A500] Vereynn:
Keep in mind that you are not going to be loading levels for Crysis on this generation of tablets. You only need something "fast enough" to feed MAYBE a 1080p video, so really any old USB2 drive will do. If you're not going to root your tab, remember the drive needs to be FAT32 not NTFS, otherwise whatever's on sale in as small a package as you can find. Also, faster HDDs (7200rpm vs 4800/5400) will generally drain more juice from your tablet. The exception to this rule is that really old drives (includin probably that 80gb model) may pull more juice than newer models.

Personally I'm using a Verbatim 500gb USB3 drive cuz it was cheap, small, and I have USB3 on two of my PCs; I also have a 60gb SSD in a cheap external case.
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
Pony up and get a Western Digital or Seagate. Most Western Digital drives(I don't buy Seagate) have a 3 year warranty and they will cross ship replacements.

Thanks
[Nexus One General] ysandhu:
Mine was broken and out of warranty as well. Called HTC.. they charged $55 including two way shipping done in 10 days...
[Nexus One General] teh_lorax:
How did you live without a phone for 10 days?
[Nexus One General] mrbkkt1:
I have 2 backup phones...

Anyway, on the subject of power buttons, beware buying refurbished ones on ebay. I've bought 1, didn't work, and he sent a replacement which worked for a day. You would want a newer one, that has the little foam piece stuck to it, one of my n1s had it.
[Nexus One General] lchiu7:
I had mine fixed outside of warranty for the same $55. Alas 2 months later it's failed again. The warranty repair is covered but what a hassle to have to send the phone back again to be repaired. I wonder what sort of parts they are using?

As noted the software fix is not to everybody's taste because it doesn't appear to work if you have a PIN on the phone. And why I am not paranoid about security, I need a PIN on the phone if I want to connect to my works Exchange server. The Activesync software enforces some local security policy on the phone.

I just hope HTC are not responsible for making the new Nexus phone. This phone has not been a happy experience for me, despite it being the native Googl experience.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
Hey everyone I'm on a stock GB g2x and everytime i unlock the screen it skips the lockscreen for a second then goes to the lockscreen. Anyone know how to fix this?

EDIT: also i tried to import my SIM contacts and it went through the proccess but they dont show up. Any help would be greatly appreciated and will receive thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] runderekrun:
Not sure about the sim card thing but the lockscreen problem is a known problem with stock firmware.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] heyguys:

[HTC EVO 3D] #Winning#:
Hey guys just trying to throw a little theme together on UOT. Does anyone know which type of update-binary the Evo 3D uses or is this Recovery dependent?
[HTC EVO 3D] empiire:
EMMC is the answer I believe you're looking for... if it's asking and your choices are something like MTD, EMMC, and a few others, EMMC is what you want, with edify scripting.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
the update-binary is semi recovery independent. the recovery has to support edify (as opposed to the old amend). essentially the recovery hands over the processsing of the update.zip file to the update-binary file. i *think* there are three api versions of this update-binary file.

i'm pretty sure we're using and its encouraged to use the latest version of this update-binary file, api 3. if you have compiled aosp or cm7, this binary is located in the output directoy for your device and then under /system/bin/updater. it gets renamed from updater to update-binary in a python script which is called when creating an update.zip file.

i would link you directly to my compiled version of the update-binary which uses api 3 but i don't have it handy at the moment. the one i compiled which works great i have included in my rom. if you wanna grab the rom and extract the update-binary file, feel to use it! also, im quite proud of my updater-script file too! feel free to reference that also ;)

i found this information by grepping thru cm7/aosp directories for update and updater phrases.

grep -irs updater /home/jk/cm7/*

or

grep -irs -update /home/jk/aosp/*

for reference, as far as i understand, MTD, EMMC, etc are "device type" parameters which are read from the updater-script file by the update-binary file when processing specific mount or format commands.

two examples:

format("ext4", "EMMC", "system");

or

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "userdata", "/data");

lots of information. hope that helps!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guardianali:
For some reason my Nook is assigning the internal mem and sd card the same letter ( E: ).

So when I attach nook to usb cable..it auto mounts the internal storage. But no sd-card yet.

Ok so far.

Then I chose mount as USB from settings so i can see both.

And instead of using a different letter so I can see and use both, it overrides the internal and assigns itself as the same so I can now see the USB but not the internal.

What do I need to do to make my computer see each as a separate letter?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Rataplan:
Well finally you downloaded a nice rom but it's not in your language, wouldn't it be great if you could use T9 in your own language.

It's still possible, I was planning to make a cab on my own, but why should I create a cab if there is already a great cab that works on our HD2.

All credits goes to wmn79, who created a multilanguage cab and seperate language cabs for the Nike and I don't think it's neccesary to rename or upload the cab's all over to this thread if you can also find them HERE.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niai_mack:
boot.img holds the kernel and boot animation, so yes you will need to change them to compatible ones.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reiser:
Hello all.

I had Litening ROM 4.2 installed on my SGS2, then I wanted to try Cyanogen Mod, and first made backup with CWM. Now when I try to restore backup, it restores it, but when I boot phone, everything is messed up, apps that I installed dont work, etc... It even shows me that first-time screen, to set up connections, time etc. Can anyone give me some hints what am I doing wrong please ? Thanks.

I even tried to install Litening ROM from scratch, deleted cache & davlik cache, and installed it with Odin, but when I try to install any application, after install it works fine for couple seconds then it shows me error and that "force close" dialog... And it happens with every app I try to install.

I have also tried to install Frankesteins Stock ROM that I found here, then install Litening ROM, but got same errors again...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
CWM4 and CWM5 use different formats for the backups. That's why backups of those are not interchangable, you have to restore with the CWM you made the backup with.

Also, don't change the dir names of the backups, I did it once and the backup woudln't restore anymore, changed name back to original one and it worked again.

The OP also sounds like only the /system partition was restored for some reason.

Try a clean format of /system, /data and /cache before the restore.

Were apps installed to sdcard?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidphile:
Just to be sure, you can try advanced restore, and restore *.img one by one.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProtoKun7:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curioct:
CWM is great for restoring the actual rom. But I have found with a large app load (I have 3-400 at any given point) it struggles.

Reconfiguring is common place, personally I use CWM for roms and titanium for apps these days.

You can coax CWM by restoring bits at a time rebooting then doing the next piece.
[General Questions and Answers] thaJack:
My apologies if this has been asked and answered before, I did a quick search and didn't find it.

I have a Thunderbolt (probably irrelevant, though) and I have it rooted and Clockworkmod Recovery is on there.

Once i got rooted, I took a backup with CWMR. Then, I installed an updated radio and a Gingerbread-based ROM. Once I got that going, took a backup of that, too.

So, enough explaining what is probably irrelevant anyway and on to my question.

Question: If I restore an old backup that was made with CWMR, will it also revert the radio software that was on the phone when that backup was taken? (each of my ROMs, stock and the custom one, had different radio software installed)

Hope my question makes sense.
[General Questions and Answers] joeshmoo:
No, the radio flashes are separate from your nandroid backups; that code is stored in a different part of the phone. It's why you have to go into hboot to flash the radios. If you flash a new rom, or restore a backup, your radio flash will still be intact. (hopefully I'm understanding your question correctly)
[General Questions and Answers] thaJack:
That did answer my question. Thanks. It would be great if that worked somehow so the nandroid backup could contain everything you need.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomas_wlc:
Could you please rephrase this or elaborate on why the guide didn't work for you. I can't make out what the problem seemed to be.

Once you have downgraded your phone according to the guide i posted above, you can go about rooting your phone using gfree (For example you could follow the instructions from the xda wiki, but there are many other how-tos on this: Root/Super-cid...)

If you go the way of gfree, the way I understand it, you will automatically end up with root as well as the supercid.

Edit: Should go without saying, but please do read every guide before following through on the steps, as this is obviously a delicate procedure that isn't risk free

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumsh:
Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening,

I recently purchased a 32 gig Transformer running stock 3.2 on a B60 serial number (so a newer model).

Kernel 2.6.36.3

Build # HTJ85b.US_epad-8.6.5.6-20110726

I am showing no updates available for download

I use an additional 16 gig micro sd card that I keep in the system pretty much all the time.

Under settings>Screen>Timeout - It is set to 1 minute

With that information here are my 2 dilema's.

Firstly my tablet does not always sleep after 1 minute. While I understand some apps have the power to override your tablets sleep state, it seems like this is happening with apps that should not have that power (minor segue can someone recommend a good app that allows me to overide granted permissions?).

For instance, Settings times out ok, but the stock camera does not. Since both are stock programs I would assume they would behave the same. I understand I could simply factory reset assuming it was simply some errors in the OS code, but am wondering if this has happened to others and what they did to fix this issue.

Also reference the HD 720 video playback issue, has anyone found a full fledged fix for this issue? I don't know if I am alone in this but I can get 30 fps on youtube but on any website that imbeds youtube videos will not play in HD without extreme video lag (about 2 frames a minute .. literally).

For instance can anyone watch this Drakkenstrike video in that websites url without having to recopy the video into youtubes website or app?

Thank you again for all your help
